LDA Quickies, OBs In Small Rooms 08/23/2026

A new video series by La Dolce Audio about single traits in audio, and how Open Baffles can achieve it given a chance.

At this point LDA has three types of videos. Wandering meandering discussions called Fireside Chats. Videos on specific topic not meant to be the last word about a topic but more organized and in depth. And our new Quickies where we simply talk about some individual thing with a simple definition and how it relates to two channel audio.

A Pair of Horn Level Two Flat Pack Baffles – La Dolce Audio 05/07/2026

LDA's first flat packs. This is a flat pack open baffles for the HL2 design as shown at Axpona and CAF. These are built to be easy and strong to get the most from the pair of 18" drivers mounted in the baffle. The large format horn/lens sit on top and the 360 degree radial on top of that. Soon to come will be crossovers, although they are very simple, nothing on the woofers, and one capactor each on the midrange and the tweeter, with an lpad on the midrange. For those that want to make their own baffles the design of the baffles are on the HL2 page, "baffles with horns."

A Pair of Horn Level Two Flat Pack Baffles – La Dolce Audio We are a small company that prizes innovation above most everything else, if someone else does it better then unless we did it first we are not going to make and sell a product. We have enough repetition in this industry. We also cherish honesty, we won’t sell something that doesn’t make a sonic...

These are our Horn Level 2 DIY loudspeaker designs. With two slot loaded 18" woofers reached down to 23hz, and two midrange horns covering from 500hz to 10k, they have a lambynth horn lens creating wider dispersion like a domed horn driver. And finally the 360 degree radial horn which makes use of the room to create layered images on the soundstage. Both the midrange lens and the radial tweeter are adjustable, so you can change their frequency profile. All three drivers make use of acoustical mechanical crossover aspects, so all that we have for a passive electronic crossover is a 30uF cap on the midrange horn, and a 2.2uF cap on the tweeter. Essentially between the electronic and acoustical mechanical it is a 2nd order crossover in the design. Oh and the 112dbs sensitive midrange is level matched with an lpad.
